public class LogEventSender {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
MediaType mediaType = MediaType.parse("application/json");
String jsonPayload = "{"project":"my-project","channel":"user-activity","event":"User Sign-In","description":"User ID 12345 has signed in.","icon":"🔐","notify":true}";
RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(mediaType, jsonPayload);
String apiUrl = "https://api.saashound.co/log-event";
Request request = new Request.Builder()
.url(apiUrl)
.post(body)
.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json")
.addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer API_TOKEN")
.build();
try (Response response = client.newCall(request).execute()) {
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
System.out.println("Log event sent successfully!");
} else {
